Dr. Haeger is the Research Director for the Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) Learning Center and an Assistant Professor in Educational Policy Studies and Practice. Her research is focused on equity in educational practices and barriers to full participation in STEM education. Her research is used to inform programmatic interventions aimed at engaging students that have been traditionally marginalized in higher education and creating more inclusive and culturally responsive STEM learning environments.
Dr. Haeger also serves as a counselor in the Undergraduate Research Program Division and serving on the Committee of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR). She served as the Assessment and Research Coordinator for the Council on Undergraduate Research from 2016-2020. In that role, she developed tools for CUR members to conduct their own research and assessment, studied the role of faculty mentoring of undergraduates in tenure and promotion, and conducted a collaborative study with seven universities on the impact of undergraduate research on retention and graduation for first-generation and low-income students in STEM.Show Less
